I seem to recall hearing on a youtube video, and I've certainly seen it discussed as normal here and other venues, that in romance mode, legendary generals do not die of old age.
Does anyone has a citation to a dev reference for this or could point me to a forum post that has this? I was talking about it somewhere and someone had asked for a citation on characters not dying and I could not (still cannot while I look) find the video that I referred to.
I did a search and saw the one forum discussion on TW3K had kind of died down without any relatively recent update posts.
Thank you if anyone can confirm characters won't die of old age in romance mode or can confirm they will in fact die of old age in both modes.

There was one youtuber who did say heroes do not die of old age but that was incorrect.

One thing to bear in mind is that one year in game is five turns, confirmed in the same let’s play (winter, spring, summer, harvest and autumn). So ‘time’ will actually pass quite slowly as a campaign progresses. 100 turns is only 20 years (I worked that out using maths)

So, this will probably be one of the first mods I pick up, and maybe someone could be generous enough to try and flesh out the rest of the characters in order to limit the number of "generics" mid to end game.
It'll eventually happen though.
They're gonna need it for all of the monogod glory.
Which will be the "4 distinct gods representing the different aspects of Chaos such as Khorne, Slaanesh, Tzeentch, and Nurgle."
Thank you CA for seeing them as what they truly are.
Let the Games Begin!

0 · LikeWe have some midgame persons, like Sima Yi. But nobody for the late game. I dont rush campaigns. I have a little bit fear, that i have a complete generic game at the end.
But i think a lot of moders, would make unique generals.
